Qing Hua Dumpling

A cornerstone of Montreal’s dumpling scene, Qing Hua is the go-to for traditional jiaozi in Chinatown and Shaughnessy Village. The menu spans an impressive array of options—vegetarian, seafood, pork, beef, chicken, and lamb—ensuring there’s a dumpling for everyone. Whether steamed or pan-fried, these dumplings burst with flavour, each bite a nod to the craft of authentic Chinese cooking.

For the adventurous, their xiaolongbao (soup dumplings) are a must. Each tender parcel is filled with pork and a savoury broth that delivers a perfect self-saucing moment—just beware of the scalding hot liquid inside. Their presence in the Concordia area ups the ante, with Shanghai-style shengjian bao and even vegan offerings making waves. Whether you’re a dumpling purist or looking for something new, Qing Hua’s dedication to variety and quality makes it a top-tier choice for comfort food in Montreal.
